What do you want to do when you grow up?

-Ever since I was little I have always wanted to be an anchorman. I have loved sports and news, and so I hope to become the next nightly news or Sportscenter anchor.

Favorite Campus Spot?

-I love looking out over Thompson Flatts during sunset, there is nothing more beautiful.

What advice do you have for new Cougar parents?

-That YOU too are also part of the famous Cougar Family! Just know that WSU is the place that cares about their student. Trust your student, and be there to help and support them as they earn their education.

Why did you choose WSU?

-The second I stepped on campus for the first time, I knew this was were I was suppose to be. The community and family feeling was palpable, and the Cougar spirit could be seen throughout the students and faculty. I also knew that WSU had the Edward R. Murrow College, which is one of the top broadcast journalism programs in the country, so it was hard being an in-state student to pass an opportunity like the Murrow College up.
